Abstract

The present invention provides a PDP structure comprising a first substrate, a second substrate and a Waffle barrier rib structure located between the first and second substrate. The Waffle barrier rib structure comprises three first barrier ribs having different width and a plurality of second barrier ribs perpendicular to the first barrier ribs. The second barrier ribs are located between the two first barrier ribs, and connect the wider structure of the two first barrier ribs. Therefore, discharge spaces are formed. Because of different width, the height difference of the barrier rib structure is formed after thermal process. Hence, gas can pass through the barrier ribs structure between the front and the back substrate sealed together.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1. A plasma display panel structure, said structure comprising:
 a back substrate; 
 a barrier rib structure arranged on a surface of said back substrate, wherein said barrier structure comprises:
 a plurality of barrier ribs arranged in the first direction and parallel to each other, wherein each of said barrier ribs is formed by a plurality of wide sections and narrow sections, and said wide sections and said narrow sections are alternately formed in the first direction, and a height difference exists between said wide section and said narrow section, and said barrier ribs comprises a first barrier rib, a second barrier rib and a third barrier rib, wherein a ratio of said narrow section to said wide section is about between 0.25 and 0.85; and 
 
 a plurality of barrier ribs arranged in a second direction and parallel to each other and located between said barrier ribs arranged in a first direction, wherein said barrier ribs arranged in a second direction are respectively connected with corresponding said wide sections to form a plurality of discharge spaces; and 
 a front substrate arranged over said barrier rib structure. 
 
     
     
       2. The plasma display panel structure according to  claim 1 , wherein said first direction is perpendicular to said second direction. 
     
     
       3. The plasma display panel structure according to  claim 1 , wherein said height difference is between about 3 μm and 15 μm. 
     
     
       4. The plasma display panel structure according to  claim 1  wherein said structure further comprises a fin-sharp barrier rib extended from said barrier rib arranged in the second direction. 
     
     
       5. The plasma display panel structure according to  claim 1 , wherein each discharge space includes one bottom and eight side walls. 
     
     
       6. A plasma display panel structure, comprising:
 a first substrate and a second substrate; 
 a plurality of address electrodes located between said first and said second substrate and arranged in a second direction; 
 a electrode structure located between said first substrate and said address electrodes, wherein said electrode structure is composed of a plurality scan electrodes and a plurality of common electrodes, and all of them arranged in a first direction and parallel to each other; and 
 a plurality of barrier rib units located between said electrode structure and said address electrodes, a channel located between any two adjacent barrier rib units and arranged in the first direction, wherein each of said barrier rib units comprises: 
 a plurality of barrier ribs arranged in the first direction and parallel to each other, wherein each of said barrier ribs is formed by a plurality of wide sections and narrow sections, and said wide sections and said narrow sections are alternately formed in the first direction, and a height difference exists between said wide section and said narrow section, and said barrier ribs comprises a first barrier rib, a second barrier rib and a third barrier rib; and 
 a plurality of barrier ribs arranged in a second direction and parallel to each other and located between said barrier ribs arranged in a first direction wherein said barrier ribs arranged in a second direction are respectively connected with corresponding said wide sections to form a plurality of discharge spaces. 
 
     
     
       7. The plasma display panel structure according to  claim 6  wherein said first direction is perpendicular to said second direction. 
     
     
       8. The plasma display panel structure according to  claim 6 , wherein a ratio of said narrow section to said wide section is about between 0.25 and 0.85. 
     
     
       9. The plasma display panel structure according to  claim 6  wherein said height difference is between about 3 μm and 15 μm. 
     
     
       10. The plasma display panel structure according to  claim 6 , wherein said structure further comprises a fluorescencer layer located over said discharge spaces. 
     
     
       11. The plasma display panel structure according to  claim 6 , wherein said structure further comprises a protective layer located between said electrode structure and said address electrodes. 
     
     
       12. The plasma display panel structure according to  claim 6 , wherein each discharge space includes one bottom and eight side walls. 
     
     
       13. The plasma display panel structure according to  claim 6 , wherein each discharge has a discharge center. 
     
     
       14. The plasma display panel structure according to  claim 6 , wherein each discharge has a first discharge center and a second discharge center. 
     
     
       15. The plasma display panel structure according to  claim 6 , wherein said structure further comprises a fin-sharp barrier rib located between said first discharge center and said second discharge center.
